Creamy Mushroom-Potato Bake image

The day I first made this, we'd invited a neighbor-a bachelor farmer-over, and I wanted to fix something hearty. It was a hit instantly. These days, our three sons enjoy it as a change from regular mashed potatoes. We've found that it's best served with beef...either with or without gravy. -Kathy Smith, Granger, Indiana

Creamy Scalloped Potato Bake image

This recipe is very rich and creamy. Not for the dieter! :) I add Spam to this but you can sub ham or bacon if you like!

Provided by Foodie Blog Stalker

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large baking potatoes, peeled & sliced
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1 yellow onion, sliced
1 (15 ounce) jar bertolli alfredo sauce (or any brand of your choice)
1 (12 ounce) can Spam, cubed (or ham or bacon)
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease 13x9 baking dish.
  • Add butter and olive oil to frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add Spam and fry until slightly browned.
  • Remove Spam from pan and add sliced onions (add more butter to pan if necessary); cook onions for 4 or 5 minutes until translucent.
  • Slice potatoes (I used a mandoline set to 1/32).
  • Layer in greased casserole dish: Potatoes, onions, Spam, cheddar, alfredo sauce (just drizzle on each layer, no need to pour - this is very rich!).
  • Keep layering until you run out of ingredients.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 2 hours.

Tips:

  • To achieve a creamy and smooth potato bake, use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold. These potatoes hold their shape well and absorb the creamy sauce.
  • For a crispy topping, use a combination of grated Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs. The cheese will melt and brown, while the bread crumbs will add a crunchy texture.
  • To prevent the potato bake from drying out, cover it with aluminum foil during baking. This will create a moist environment that helps the potatoes cook evenly.
  • If you're using fresh herbs, add them towards the end of cooking to preserve their flavor and aroma.
  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of heavy cream and milk. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese for extra creaminess.

Conclusion:

With its creamy texture, crispy topping, and delicious flavor, this potato bake is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So experiment with different ingredients and find your perfect creamy potato bake recipe!
